[Intro: A ]
           A   A7
Pokarekare ana
              D
Nga wai o Waiapu
              E
Whiti atu koe hine 
           A  D  A
marino ana e.

  A7   D
E hine E 
         A   F#m
hoki mai ra. 
         E
Ka mate ahau 
           A  D  A
I te aroha e.

    E         A    A7
Tuhituhi taku reta 
              D
tuku atu taku ringi,
            E 
Kia kite to iwi
              A  D  A 
raru raru ana e.

  A7   D
E hine E 
         A   F#m
hoki mai ra. 
         E
Ka mate ahau 
           A  D  A
I te aroha e.

  E        A    A7
E kore te aroha 
              D
e maroke i te ra, 
       E
Makuku tonu 
              A  D  A
i aku roimata e.

  A7   D
E hine E 
         A   F#m
hoki mai ra. 
         E
Ka mate ahau 
           A  D  A
I te aroha e.

    E          A    A7
Kua whati taku pene
           D
ka pau aku pepa,
         E
Ko taku aroha 
             A  D  A
mau tonu ana e.

  A7   D
E hine E 
         A   F#m
hoki mai ra. 
         E
Ka mate ahau 
           A  D  A
I te aroha e.
